One particular reason why Trump should worry about ex-counsel Michael Cohen testifying

[no_hypocrisy]

before Congress: he has nothing to lose. He's being disbarred. He's going to jail. He's recovering from should surgery. His life is a misery. As Kris Kristofferson wrote, "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose." He can't be blackmailed. He can't be bribed.

The situation is akin to when I represent law clients pro bono (for free): I am at the same level as "deep pockets" with clients ready to pay whatever is necessary to win. I don't care how much it costs to win too. I can wait a looooooong time. Winning in court is often about how much money can you afford to spend to win or wait for the other side to blink.

Therefore, Trump knows that Cohen can say everything he fears because he has proof/evidence to confirm everything that he's going to testify about. He's credible. There may be some new bombshells.

Yeah, yeah, this won't change the fervor of the Trumpers, but it may make the Republicans nervous about 2020. They saw what happened in 2018.

1. I like when Janis sang it.

2. Cohen will be aware that his life is on the line.

3. That song will always be in my lifetime Top Ten. I agree about Cohen and

some new bombshells. We have some brilliant questioners on that panel.

4. Cohen has every motive to tell the truth. The more he gives up, the more likely it is his sentence

has a chance of being reduced. Apparently, during the first year, the prosecutor can ask the court to reduce the sentence so Cohen will be talking nonstop until after that happens. Lying, on the other hand, could extend his prison term.
